The eDP spec lists 4 different standard pinouts (how > strictly those are followed, I have no idea). But it does not define a > connector or a cable. And afaik eDP is defined to be not user-detachable. Yes, but HPD is still used (or sometimes broken). We could just put that all in panel nodes, but IIRC the last time this came up the issue was handling devices with different panels stuffed by the manufacturer. An eDP connector binding would be one way to handle that as it is somewhat standardized while panel connections aren't at all. Rob
